Chapter 174 Angel of Death: Black and Gray

Fang Rui contacted the hospital staff, and they sent several medical staff to help the police search for bodies.

The bodies in the freezer were all in body bags.

This time, they pulled out all the bodies in the freezer, opened the bags and checked them one by one, and finally found Yangyang's body in one of the cabinets.

Yangyang's body was placed in a body bag with another old man's body. Yangyang's body was placed at the position of the other body's legs. If you don't open the bag, you won't be able to find that there is also a child's body hidden inside.

During the first inspection, they opened the body bag and saw an old man's body inside, so they did not check again. Unexpectedly, Li Yang's body was placed inside.

Xiao Zhang said: "Yangyang's death couldn't really be a medical accident, otherwise why would the doctor hide the body?"

Xiao Li analyzed: "It is also possible that someone pretended to be a doctor to steal the body. You see, the white coat he wore is too big and doesn't fit him."

Fang Rui said: "Xiao Zhang, Xiao Li, you two go to investigate one thing."

"Okay."

Mu Mian took out a new body bag, put Yangyang's body in it, and took it back.

Fang Rui invited Li Ruiqing to the inquiry room.

"Mr. Li, we have found your son's body."

"Really? That's great, great." Li Ruiqing said absent-mindedly.

He sat on the chair uncomfortably, lowering his head in guilt, not daring to look Fang Rui in the eye.

"Mr. Li, don't you want to know who hid your son's body?"

"Who? Could it be the doctors? They didn't want my wife to make a scene, and they didn't want you to find out the cause of death, so they hid my son's body." Li Ruiqing guessed.

"Mr. Li, where did you go yesterday afternoon?" Fang Rui asked.

"I... I was accompanying my wife. I was afraid that she would commit suicide out of emotional excitement, so I stayed with her and counseled her."

"Did you buy a wig?"

"No."

"The owner of the wig shop closest to the hospital said that you bought a wig there, and said that you bought it for your terminally ill wife. The hospital's surveillance camera captured you sneaking into the doctor's office yesterday at noon. Did you steal the doctor's white coat?"

"I..."

Faced with all the evidence, Li Ruiqing could no longer make excuses.

"Mr. Li, why did you hide your child's body?"

Li Ruiqing hugged his head with a painful expression. He opened his mouth and finally admitted: "Yes, I hid the child's body. Yesterday at noon, I took advantage of the doctors going out for a meeting, stole a white coat, disguised as a doctor, and hid my child's body in the freezer. I did it, you can catch me."

"Why did you hide the child's body?" Fang Rui repeated.

Li Ruiqing didn't say anything.

"Because you know that the child did not die of natural causes, but was murdered, right?"

Li Ruiqing still didn't say anything.

"If you keep silent, we have to suspect that your child's death has something to do with you."

"I... I have nothing to say." Li Ruiqing opened his mouth, wanted to say something, and closed his mouth again.

Fang Rui temporarily detained Li Ruiqing on the charge of stealing a corpse.

Xiao Zhang was puzzled: "I don't think Li Ruiqing killed Yangyang. He was not at home on the day Yangyang died, but why did he hide the body?"

Fang Rui said: "He might be protecting someone."

After Feng Xiaonan learned that her husband hid the child's body, she became emotional again and murmured to the air: "Li Ruiqing killed Yangyang. He had a woman outside. He didn't need this child. He felt that Yangyang was a burden..."

"You said he cheated?"

"That must be the case."

Feng Xiaonan's mental state was too bad. Fang Rui and his friends had no choice but to contact Feng Xiaonan's parents to take her back.

In the autopsy room.

Mu Mian carefully read the death record given by the doctor.

The cause of death given by the doctor was: intracranial infection leading to increased intracranial pressure, which in turn led to brain herniation.

The death diagnosis was: extremely severe cranial injury, left temporal subdural hematoma; bilateral forehead, temporal lobe and right parietal lobe cerebral contusion; traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage; scalp hematoma.

The death record showed: at 19:52 on August 9, the patient's vital signs were abnormal, his heart stopped beating, his lips were cyanotic, he had difficulty breathing, and his pupils were dilated. After rescue, he died at 20:46 that night.

After the body was thawed, Mu Mian began to dissect the body.

The face and fingers of the deceased were cyanotic, and there were needle-sized bleeding spots in the conjunctiva. These can be preliminarily inferred that the deceased may have died of suffocation, or at least there was a process of suffocation.

Mu Mian checked the mouth and nose of the deceased and found no foreign objects. However, some black gray substances were found in the respiratory tract of the deceased. Those substances were in block shape, small in size, and very thin. Mu Mian wiped

some black ash with a cotton swab and carefully examined it under the light.

Mu Mian said, "This looks like something burned."

Chen Xue observed it carefully for a while, then said, "It seems to be wood ash. Could it be that this thing blocked the deceased's respiratory tract and caused his death? Who stuffed this thing into Yangyang's respiratory tract? This is too vicious, isn't it? Isn't this intentional murder?"

Mu Mian cut open the deceased's abdominal cavity. She first cut open the deceased's trachea and lungs, and found a small amount of black substance inside.

Mu Mian also took out the deceased's stomach. After cutting open the stomach, there was also a lot of black substance in the stomach. These substances were attached to the gastric mucosa.

Chen Xue asked, "There are also some in the lungs and stomach? Could it be that when someone fed these things to the deceased, they accidentally fell into his respiratory tract, causing him to suffocate?"

Chen Xue suddenly thought of something, "Could it be that his family fed him?"
